Bristol County District Attorney Thomas M. Quinn III’s office will once again hold its annual Bristol County Celebration of Seniors conference this Friday, June 16, at White’s of Westport, 66 State Road.
The half-day event, which will begin with a free breakfast for all attendees at 9 a.m., will feature numerous speakers on issues of importance to seniors and their caretakers. The conference will also be home to more than 60 vendors, all of whom provide resources to seniors in the region. The event is free and open to the public and will be a one stop shop for any senior, caretaker or loved one to get the important information they need to protect and care for an elder.
The speaking program will run from 9 a.m. to shortly after 10 a.m. At the conclusion of the speaking portion of the conference, attendees will be free to browse the Senior Resource Fair, which will include more than 60 vendors and service providers.
The Annual Celebration of Seniors Event is part of District Attorney Quinn’s dedication to senior issues. After first being sworn in as district attorney in 2015, District Attorney Quinn immediately created a unique unit within the office devoted to elder abuse and elder financial exploitation prevention, prosecution and investigations. The unit is comprised of expert investigators and prosecutors who have taken on complex elder financial abuse investigations that require more than just a police detective to solve.
The event is being co-sponsored by Coastline Elderly Services.
